A Drop of Rain - a Grain of Sand

I’m no more than a drop of rain
Landing in the sea
I offer you my Lord all I am
I belong to thee

My path has been a winding road
Often I feel lost
Wondering how this drop of rain
Will ever pay the cost

I reckon I shall find a wave
Ride it to the shore
Then soak into a grain of sand
And live forever more

Whether I’m a drop of rain
Or a grain of sand
I shall always strive to be
The very best I can

I think this is probably my favorite so far, it says so much in such a short span of words. Your talent continues to amaze me!
